Chapter 259 You have to win to the end to be unstoppable
It was afternoon on the sixth day after entering the mission world.

After seeing the figure of the man she had been waiting for for a long time finally appear at the end of the street, the female general's heart was finally half relieved.

The female general first straightened her clothes to make sure her image was decent, then she waved to Fang Yi who was approaching, indicating that she saw him.

Only after seeing the man's usual smile on his face did the female general feel completely relieved.

Even the female general felt a little complacent at this moment.

Apparently, compared to the [Minister]'s 'mountains of gold and silver', I still have some unique charm.

[Minister] The huge show that was made this morning was not actually meant to win him over in Fang Yi's eyes.

Instead, he took advantage of the opportunity to win me over and used "mountains of gold and seas of silver" to "pad" the alchemical potion that was definitely fishy.

But the [Minister] was so generous that he personally went to Fang Yi's house to win him over.

However, it inadvertently brought great pressure to the female general.

Even Esdeath, who was oblivious to what was happening outside, learned through the Minister's deliberate propaganda that the Minister had offered many gifts to win over a soldier named Fang Yi.

The first reaction of the female general who knew about this was to "raise the stakes" on Fang Yi.

Whether it's the imminent [Punishment Mission] on the panel, or the confrontation with the [Minister] who has turned against him and is destined to have an irreconcilable conflict.

The female general knew very well that her own actions were restricted.

If you want to complete the turnaround, you basically cannot do without Fang Yi's help.

This man has unique talent, and his personality and way of doing things are unexpectedly very much to the female general's liking.

If you miss it now, there will never be a second one.

Therefore, no matter what, the female general could not accept Fang Yi's "running away" behavior.

But after the female general thought about it, she felt powerless again.

Compared with the Minister's lavish spending, she really couldn't offer a simple and clear price to win over the other party at the moment.

Her most valuable "card" was the [Ice Soul Concentration Visualization Method], which she played out right from the start.

He also taught the other party his relatively useful skill [Hiding Strength] when he was inspired.

Apart from this relatively useful body and a relatively unpractical skill related to 'momentum', she has been 'squeezed dry'.

Therefore, after the female general learned that the [Minister] was trying to win over the other party, she had been worried for a long time.

He wanted to visit Fang Yi, but he knew that apart from his body, he could not give a "gift" that would be worthy of the Minister.

She wanted to stay in the mansion and wait for the opportunity, but she was also afraid that this man would not come.

The irritable female general naturally couldn't sit still at home.

He had no choice but to walk out of the mansion, just like he stubbornly stayed at the door of Fang Yi's mansion in the rain that day.

Once again transformed into a husband-waiting stone, waiting for Fang Yi's arrival.

And now, the other party arrived as promised according to what she had thought in her heart.

The female general stretched her sore legs and feet, unbuttoned a few buttons on her collar, and walked towards Fang Yi.

[Today, I need to find a way to deepen my relationship with him. Even going 'deeper' is not out of the question.]

This man is indeed worthy of my trust.
-
Seeing the female general pouncing on her prey like a hungry tiger, Fang Yi smiled inwardly.

Although, he still doesn't know what the Minister is up to.

But it obviously did not affect his ability to get some bonuses and gold coins from the female general.

Therefore, when the female general let slip a little, deliberately moved closer to him, and made an ambiguous invitation in a rather suggestive way, "Those two [Imperial Equipment Users] haven't arrived yet. To prevent being eavesdropped, you'd better go to my bedroom and sit down."

He played a little trick of playing hard to get, and kept some distance from the female general's hot body to avoid suspicion.

He said with a serious face, "Since the two [Imperial Equipment Users] are not here, let's continue to train me to improve my strength and discuss the [Martial Arts Tournament] at the same time."

After hearing Fang Yi's speech, the female general, although extremely anxious, already had the momentum to transform into the 'anxious king'.

She had no choice but to put on a smile and let Fang Yi into her bedroom and sit on the bed.

At the same time, she quickened her speaking pace and began to introduce to Fang Yi some of the inside stories of the [Martial Arts Competition] that she knew.

*
A few minutes later, in Esdeath's bedroom.

Although it is not known why the female general chose this place for the talks.

But when Fang Yi heard the female general, who had moved a chair and sat across from him, mention that "the [Martial Arts Tournament] will offer the opportunity for outstanding performers to select an [Alchemist] to tailor-make an [Imperial Gear]," he showed interest.

He changed his previous 'cold' attitude, put down the teacup in his hand, and began to ask questions.

"So, this is basically my only chance to get in touch with the Alchemist and use the dangerous materials in the Empire's inventory?"

I felt that we had been keeping our distance since we met.

The female general was delighted when Fang Yi, whose attitude had become somewhat lukewarm, finally showed interest.

She stood up from the chair, moved a little closer to Fang Yi who was sitting on the bed, and gave her response.

“According to Bud, although those amazing [Alchemists] are nominally working for the Empire, they have basically all been put under the command of the [Minister].

"Except for one man named Ma Han who, unfortunately, offended the Minister by ruining his Imperial Gear, I'm afraid that no matter what equipment you want to create, you won't be able to hide it from the Minister."

Fang Yi, who captured the key information, had an idea.

[Ma Han, such a familiar name.]

[I remember the alchemist who contributed a lot of points to me and gave me the alchemy bomb was called this name.]

The most profound memory Fang Yi had of this [Alchemist] was not the experience of being interrogated by him.

But as a reincarnation, when he was on a mission, he actually carried the skill scroll of [Basics of Alchemy] with him.

If the name is correct, and the other party is really the [Alchemist] he met before.

The other party's talents and the [relics] he carries are probably not simple.

After noting the news, Fang Yi immediately revealed his attitude towards the [Minister] to the female general without showing any emotion.

“I want to contact him without going through the [Minister]. Is there any reliable way?

“I have something concerning the Imperial Guards that I don’t want the Minister to know.

"It seems like we can only find him."

[Haunted by Evil Spirits] If this [Imperial Tool] of unexplained origin is handed over to someone else for repair.

If the information that he possesses this [Imperial Tool] will reach the ears of the [Minister], he will lose many advantages.

At the same time, Fang Yi needs to pay a higher price to win over other alchemists in normal situations.

Adding icing on the cake and providing timely assistance have completely different meanings.

If it really was that 'acquaintance', Fang Yi had a feeling that he would be able to get a lot of extra help from him.

*
After hearing the man express his attitude towards the [Minister], the female general was obviously relieved.

She 'cunningly' took the opportunity to speak and moved closer to Fang Yi who was sitting on the bed.

Only after seeing that the man no longer avoided her and instead made physical contact with her without hesitation did she feel completely relieved.

The female general squeezed in again and gave her opinion from a somewhat ambiguous distance.

"Those [Alchemists] are under surveillance by spies, so they can't move freely, and the [Minister] can't access their materials.

“Unless you want to fall out with the [Minister], my advice is to handle matters in a businesslike manner.

"After you won the [Martial Arts Tournament], before the [Minister] approached you, and when the Emperor arrived, you pretended to be 'unaware' of this matter.

"Let's settle this matter and contact the other party with legitimate reasons." Seeing the female general's small movements, even though the other party's plan was a bit naive.

But Fang Yi pretended to be slow and thought about it.

I was 'forced' to feel the 'strong' body of the female general.

He once again confirmed the power of the opponent's [Imperial Weapon] through the symbol on his chest, and found that it had not fully recovered.

He also used his elbow to casually rub some parts of the other person's body, and by repeatedly turning on and off [Mind Confusion], he made the other person's cheeks more and more red, and his eyes more and more moist.

He played a trick called "Cunzhi".

He suddenly distanced himself from the other person as if waking from a dream and gave the answer.

"This news is very valuable, so I am also giving you a valuable piece of news.

"If you believe me, don't use the Minister's alchemy potion. I'm afraid there's something wrong with that potion."

When Esdeath heard Fang Yi's words, she thought Fang Yi was too "innocent" and was "scared" by her.

She mistakenly grasped the opportunity to 'attack' her 'prey' and decisively launched a 'raid'.

Under Fang Yi's puzzled gaze, she held Fang Yi's wrist and slowly placed his entire hand on her chest.

She licked her tongue, exhaled hot air, and spoke to Fang Yi with moist eyes.

"I trust you with all my heart.

"If you don't believe me, you can touch it and feel my heartbeat."

The female general looked at Fang Yi, who seemed a little 'at a loss', and smiled in her heart.

[According to convention, the next moment, the other party should have moved his hand away as if shocked, and averted his gaze. I had mastered this.]

However, facing the female general's'offensive'.

Fang Yi nodded seriously, "You are right."

He directly chose to obey the female general's will, chose to take action, and prepared to feel the opponent's snow-white scale.

【If you want to control me with your body, you are still too young.】

*
Fang Yi's proactive move obviously caught the female general off guard.

The man's hands seemed to have a magical power.

He was clearly just leaning close to her chest in a serious manner, and in the process brought her charming face closer to himself.

The female general felt a strong scent that intoxicated her.

My heart rate instantly jumped up and my body became hot.

The female general could already feel her toes curling up involuntarily in her military boots.

When Fang Yi moved his fingers cunningly, the female general had already started to think about eating him.

Then, Fang Yi withdrew his hand with satisfaction and played the trick of "playing hard to get" again.

The most important thing right now is to improve strength and accelerate the evolution and integration of "momentum".

He planned to reveal his identity to the female general at the right time and then cooperate with her in depth.

"General, since those [Imperial Tool Users] haven't arrived, it's just empty talk to win them over. Why don't you take some time to train me?

"I still know very little about 'momentum', and I should be facing General Liva, who has a water source nearby.

“I need to ask you for advice.

"If possible, is there any technique you could teach me to perform a sudden assault and strengthen 'momentum'?"

Although the female general felt lost and couldn't stop thinking about what she had just felt, she regained her composure after Fang Yi mentioned the serious matter.

[The other party still has to participate in the [Martial Arts Competition], so we can't let him lose his energy and affect our work.]

[It's better to wait until the other party wins the championship, then squeeze them hard and feel the pleasure of 'defeating' the champion.]

The female general resisted her impulse and planned how to use Fang Yi.

Then he glanced at Fang Yi and began to give advice on how to help the other side defeat Li Wa.

"Many people exaggerate the concept of 'momentum', but I think it was just a loss in spirit and momentum.

"This then causes your hands and feet to become uncontrollable and you can't react correctly.

"Just like a warrior's trump cards and unique skills, if you sense the opponent's 'momentum' multiple times and understand it, you will naturally be able to take precautions.

"Liva used to be my subordinate. I'll tell you about his power later. You'll naturally be able to deal with him easily."

The female general's decisive betrayal of her former subordinates after she had a 'new love' made Fang Yi feel the dawn of deepening cooperation with her after revealing her identity.

At the same time, he also remembered that the 'Collector's Edition' skill scrolls that [Minister] gave him and Zhu Tian in their treasure chests both had an added effect of increasing the resistance to 'momentum'.

Before Fang Yi could reply, the female general added something that surprised Fang Yi.

"If you quickly improve your understanding of 'momentum', then you'll face a life-or-death battle.

"But even with this method, it's hard to make a leap in your 'momentum'."

"If you want to temporarily increase your momentum during one of these battles, I have a very risky method."

The female general looked into Fang Yi's eyes and seriously told him this difficult method.

“That is, before this battle, don’t lose any fights or sparring.

“And the opponent has to try their best to perform in these situations and not deliberately lose.

"Your 'momentum' will naturally grow rapidly and gain a huge boost before you lose.

"That is, if your battle to increase your momentum takes place after the [Martial Arts Tournament]."

As the task reminder sounded in his ears, the female general's last words also reached Fang Yi's ears.

"From now on, until the battle you long for begins, you must not lose a single battle and win until the end.

"You need to truly defeat me when I use my Imperial Tool.

“Even though my Imperial Tool’s power has decreased, it will still be difficult for you to do it.

"But if you really do it, I'll give you some special rewards."

The female general added in her heart.

"If you can truly defeat me, then I will acknowledge you as the man who can completely 'conquer' me."
-
At the same time, Hei Tong walked into Esdeath's reception room and saw Kohler examining the dagger by the window.

Kohler raised his head, his eyes lit up, and was about to talk to the girl.

However, the next moment, the door of the reception room was violently kicked open, interrupting Kohler's communication.

Having regained his arm, Izo walked in somewhat arrogantly.

The samurai planned to carry out a provocation and make some noise so that the spies of the revolutionary army could catch him.

[Here, as long as I don't run into someone like Fang Yi who can kill me instantly with one strike, it won't be a big problem.]

【It’s impossible for him to appear here. 】

【At the same time, Esdeath should not dare to fall out with the [Minister].】

The warrior glanced at the trembling Kohler and the unresponsive Hei Tong and felt safe.

　Migraine and low efficiency in manuscript revision.

　　I haven't finished revising it yet, so I owe you an update. I'll make it up later.
